Pros

I have been at CrossCountry for almost a year. Having previously worked at consulting firms with very competitive environments, I experienced a breath of fresh air when I realized CCC is much more of a collaborative, supportive firm. It feels like a family because everyone genuinely cares about you, listens, and supports your ideas. I have never worked at a company where the Partners/COO ask to randomly take you out to lunch to get to know you and ensure you are having a good experience. Additionally, CrossCountry has supported my learning and provided me the opportunity to grow by providing me with funds to take appropriate courses for my career development. At previous companies, I was told I would have a budget to do this but when it came time to sign up for the course or certification, I was told “maybe next year.” I was very happy to see that they meant what they said! Lastly, they really listen- leadership doesn’t just take your feedback and pretend they are going to make changes. They are honest about their plans and follow up about what they intend to do to make a difference.

Cons

CrossCountry is a small but growing company. Nothing is ever perfect (for example there are no life insurance benefits, and I am not always happy with the project I’m on…but that’s just one project, not the rest of my career at the company). However, I feel that CrossCountry is growing smart and I am excited to stick around.

Pros

I've worked at CrossCountry since nearly the beginning and it has been great to see the tremendous growth over the years. I feel that alot of companies that experience similar growth will lose part of their identity or the culture starts to change - not so with CrossCountry. Whether we have 20 people or 200, it always feels like family. Our quarterly all hands meetings feel more like a family reunion as opposed to a meeting. The energy is always great and the leadership team is extremely engaged with the whole company. I always leave these quarterly meetings feeling really energized about the company. As with any consulting company - whether it be big 4 (I have worked at big 4) or a small consulting company - you will get your mix of projects and clients. The part about CrossCountry that makes things different is the people. On every project, I knew I was surrounded by an extremely talented group of people that would not only deliver top-notch client service, but would go above and beyond for their team mates. I have the utmost confidence in our leadership team. They are the friendliest, most down to earth people and will go out of their way for anyone in the company. I remember an example where I was working late on a project and there was a knock on my cube wall - I turned around and it was one of the founders of CrossCountry that stopped by to see how I was doing and if he could grab me some dinner. Not sure how many companies you will find where the owner will come check on you and offer to buy you dinner. They are also extremely talented - I know I have been able to learn alot from attending meetings and sales calls with them - and it has made me a better consultant. Aside from project work, CrossCountry continues to improve as a company - offering various social events, community service events, training opportunities, and they continue to improve their benefits (which are comparable to any you will find at a larger company). The best part about CrossCountry is that they just don't offer these things, but they want you to be a part of it. You have coaches and managers that are vested in your professional development - they want to see you be involved in the company and give back to the community. It has been great to see CrossCountry grow over the past 5 years, and I am even more excited about the growth that lies ahead.

Cons

So far - none. This is by far the best place I have worked.

Pros

The people at CrossCountry are really nice and their is a great welcoming culture. Senior leadership are very impressive- That's it.

Cons

This IS NOT a consulting firm. It is a back office staffing organization that has terrible opportunities for its people. The only people they employ are those that couldn't make it at big 4 or other firms.

Thank you for writing a review and it’s unfortunate that you had this experience while at CrossCountry. We are a bit surprised by your staffing comment since we offer our consultants the opportunity to work on a broad scope of projects, opportunities, clients and industries within our different service lines. Hopefully you shared some more details and specifics during your exit interview so we can continue to develop and learn. Wishing you the best in your career.
